Books – Felice Cohen

Famous book. I think it was a real diary, thus the anonymous author? I'm fairly certain that the book described is not Go Ask Alice. None of the details that the poster gave match the plot of that book. Dragonwagon, Crescent, To Take a Dare , It's about a runaway who takes up with other hippies, does drugs, and gets pregnant.

I don't recall if it had a character in it named Curly Red, though. This definitely isn't To Take a Dare - the heroine of that book does drugs with her suburban friends before she runs away, but has stopped long before she settles in a town popular with leftover hippies. So that might help in the process of elimination. This is a real long-shot, but I couldn't help noticing the similarity in names. If you check R53 in archives on this site - "Rat called not-polite", one of the possible solutions is a book entitled " Twirlup on the moon " by Laura Bannon.

I thought of "Trilliwip" because I had read your intriguing post earlier.

A Grandchild’s Eulogy to her Grandpa

It may be a real stretch, but I thought I'd suggest it anyway.. Edgar Eager, Time garden. Rescue was an anthology, while Mutiny was a novel. The short stories had appeared in Boys' Life magazine.

The stories continued to appear after the books were published, so if you remember something that was not in the books, you probably read it in the short stories. I remember the boys running afoul of a farmer named Jay Henney Haney? A short story in the s in Boys' Life re-visited this character.

Ruth Chew, Summer Magic , Sarah and Timothy are transported into the past while visiting a display of an old house at the Brooklyn Museum. They stay with a couple named the Maartens and meet some Indians. Just bought and read this Scholastic book.

It's about three children who somehow travel in time through a combination of smelling a pillow they found in an old attic trunk and walking into a garden maze. It's a book I loved as a child, but I can't remember much more than that. I think the people they ended up living with in the past were former slaves who had joined a Native tribe, but I'm not sure if that was my interpretation or part of the book.

I don't recall the specific scene with all of the old loves it's been many years since I read it , but it sounds very much like Jurgen's preoccupations. Many reprints exist, and the book is available online with illustrations here and here. Thank you for solving this - it was driving me and my wife crazy.

A little research showed that the copy that I had was a Dover Press reprint released in I want to buy a paperback copy, I did find it on Amazon, but I'll give you a chance 1st if you want to sell me a copy. Elizabeth Hart Ritter, Parasols is for Ladies. Winston Co.

See a Problem?

About 3 little girls in the Deep South who get brand-new colorful Easter dresses and matching parasols for Easter Sunday. Hardcover, 96 pages. Elizabeth Ritter , The Three Parasols, Elizabeth Ritter wrote a 5-part series for Jack and Jill magazine that started in the November, issue. It was called "The Three Parasols," and I assume the book mentioned above is a book version of the stories. In it, three sisters, Gennie, Nolie, and Rellie, see the parasols in the store window and can't afford them.

They end up earning the money by taking care of a cow and selling the buttermilk. At one point the money they have saved is lost it turns out that one of the little girls has buried it in the hope that it will grow into more money. No mention of the mom making dresses that match, but I don't have all the issues of the magazine, or it might have been added to the book.

That might help the seeker decide whether Parasols is for Ladies is the right book. Charlotte Steiner, Little John Little , This is the book, and I have it, but am having trouble locating it. It's a Wonder Book, and Charlotte Steiner did the illustrations as well as the story. As I recall the book, Little John Little is a very tiny fellow who, at the very beginning of the book, is inadvertently swept out the front door of his house by his normal-sized mother and proceeds to build his own tiny house to live in, I think out of matchsticks.

INTRODUCTION.

There's an illustration of him picking a huge to him blueberry from a ladder probably also made of matchsticks. He befriends a ladybug named I think Reddy, who becomes his pet. One day he goes swimming. I think I recall a picture of him diving from a lillypad into the water, near a frog. I think he then falls asleep on a leaf and is blown by the wind for some distance.

Peppa Pig - My Birthday Party (full episode)

He ends up near a cow eating grass who's about to inadvertently, again eat him when a bird swoops down and saves him. She takes him to her nest high in a tree with her young ones. He thanks her and asks her to take him home, but she thinks he's better off with her and takes off. He gets help from a squirrel, who first takes him to her home in a hole in the tree and feeds him along with her children. I'm quite sure there's an illustration looking from outside -- where it's become dark -- through the hole into the lighted home, where Little Johon Little is eating at a table with the squirrel family.

After that the squirrel gives him a ride down the tree. He's still feeling somewhat stranded, but I think a passing mouse gives him a ride home on her back, and I think I recall Reddy waiting at the door to the lighted home as Little John Little arrives.

Looking for a Childhood Book? Here's How.

I recall the last illustration being of Little John Little sleeping in the matchbox bed with Reddy up on the "headboard" which I think is the top of the matchbox turned up. The illustrations are great, very much like those in A Surprise for Mrs. Bunny, which Charlotte Steiner also wrote and illustrated. Mother Holle.

In this German fairy tale, two sisters take turns working for Mother Holle, who lives at the bottom of a well. Text can be found online.

If you search for "Mother Holle" you can find many websites that have the entire story online. I suspect the version you're looking for is a picture book, not a story in an anthology, so you might want to look at Mother Holly by the Brothers Grimm , retold and illustrated by Bernadette Watts Crowell, or Mother Holly: a retelling from the Brothers Grimm by John Warren Stewig , with illustrations by Johanna Westerman North-South Books, Yesterday, I suggested John W.

I'd like to withdraw that suggestion, as Stewig says in his introduction, "In all previous editions, pitch or tar fell on Blanche. Because that would be difficult to remove, I changed it to barbs, bristles and burrs, which are miserable but not impossible to remove. These are all collections of stories, so if the stumper requester is looking for a book with a single story in it, Mother Holly by Bernadette Watts Crowell, may be the one sought. Kingdom of the Cats. I read a similar story in a Reader's Digest collection of fairy tales.

It was called "colony of the cats" or "kingdom of the cats," something like that. The good woman who took care of the cats was dipped in a barrel of gold, while the bad woman was dipped in oil and got a donkey tail in her forehead. Sinbad and Me is the title of the 1st book, then he wrote a sequel or two, one of which is entitled Mystery of the Witch Who Wouldn't.

  5. Kin Platt, Sinbad and Me , Sadly out of print, and somewhat hard to find. The dog is an English bulldog named Sinbad. Steve does have an elderly friend, Mrs. Teska, who is a shopkeeper, and she appears in more than one book, but I can't remember if she's Polish. I read these books so long ago that I'm not certain which one you're looking for, but it is probably either Sinbad and Me or The Ghost of Hellsfire Street.
